Lena Littlefield

Lena Ruth Bibby Littlefield, age 76, of Empire, Alabama, passed away on November 15, 2025. She was born in Oneonta, Alabama, and grew up in Robinwood, Tarrant, and Vincent before returning to Tarrant to raise her family.

She is survived by her loving children Lisa (Henry) Lowery, Jeana (Scot) Alexander, Brandon Davis, and Krista (Brandon) Akira; grandchildren Chad Lowery, Christina Lowery (Matthew Freeman), Trinity Davis (Zac Smith), Micah Alexander, Reagan Alford, and Keaton Davis; and great-grandchildren Scarlett Freeman and Kavari Monroe. She was preceded in death by her grandson, Hunter Alexander.

Lena was the beloved and only daughter of the late Ruben G. and Bernice Lindley Bibby, and sister to the late James Ruben (Sherry) Bibby and Donald Ray Bibby. She is survived by her brother Charles (Sue) Bibby, Judy Bibby and a wide circle of nieces, nephews, cousins, friends, and those whose lives she brightened. 

Lena had a successful career in advertising before retiring early to care for her mother—a testament to her selflessness and devotion to family. She was passionate about supporting causes close to her heart, including Alzheimer’s awareness in memory of her mother and childhood cancer awareness in memory of her grandson. A lifelong Elvis fan and enthusiastic traveler, Lena lived her life with energy, adventure and a smile.

A celebration of her life will be held Saturday, November 22, 2025 at Jefferson Memorial Funeral Home and Gardens in Trussville. Friends and family are cordially invited to the visitation at 11am with a service to follow at Noon, officiated by Rev. Stan Prewett. 

The family would like to express their heartfelt gratitude to Nancy Hammons for her faithfulness, commitment and love; Fresenius Kidney Care–Cullman under the direction of Dr. Thomas Watson and Brittney Nix for their exceptional care and compassion; The entire team at Woodland Village Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center-Cullman for their gentle care, patience and comfort; Angie Statham Leggett for her unwavering love and support, and Alabama Hospice Care for their dedication and comfort during Lena’s final days at home.

Lena will be remembered for her boundless spirit, her deep love for her family, and her unwavering kindness to all who knew her.
